5.1 PREPARATION OF THE TRAYS
Pay close attention to the preparation of the trays. It is recommended to use always the port-
trays and trays for sterilization.
Warning! Use always the trays and the tray holder.
Never place the material to be sterilized directly on the bottom of the chamber!
During the cleaning and maintenance of instruments, always use protective gloves!
a
) Adhere to the weight of the load limits set by the manufacturer
b) Always use the trays and hold-trays
c) Do not overload individual trays
d) Leave space between the envelopes placed on trays, in this way the steam circulates better.
s) Please note that the envelopes do not touch the walls of the sterilization chamber
f) Empty containers or bowls not drilled must be placed in the inverted position to prevent the accumulation of water
inside
g) The instruments of different material (stainless steel, carbon steel, aluminium, etc..) must be placed on separate
trays and wrapped in separate envelopes
h) The instruments of carbon steel should be isolated from the tray with a specific sheet of paper and wrapped with a
special double envelope by inserting an indicator of sterilization.
i) Instruments with joints, such as forceps, scissors, etc… must be sterilized in the open position.
j) Always use proper sterilization pouches that allow good penetration of steam and a good drying. It's better to use
sealed envelopes with HEAT.
k) The envelope must be placed on the tray with the paper side facing up.
l) Place the tubes in order to keep the open ends. Make sure there are no kinks.
m) To prepare the trays containing dental manipulates, follow instructions provided by the manufacturer of the
handpiece. Proceed as follows:
• Wrap the tray for sterilization in the cleaning cloth and proceed to pack it
• Place the handpiece on a tray NOT drilled to prevent a possible spill of oil that could contaminate the pipes of the
autoclave.
• At the end of the cycle immediately remove the handpiece
n) For the preparation of the trays containing rotary instruments (drills, etc.) always use a double envelope and indicate
the type of sterilization.
In the case of double wrapped, at the end of cycle wait about 5 minutes before removing the
trays.
